Feedback Ramp Metering in Intelligent Transportation Systems is the first book on the topic of using feedback control (also called real-time traffic control or adaptive control by some traffic engineers) in ramp metering. It provides traffic theory fundamentals and then the design of feedback controllers for isolated and coordinated ramp metering problems. Software simulation code in Matlab and Paramics is provided in the book so that the reader can get a hands-on feel for the various algorithms. With a large number of examples, illustrations, and original problems, this book is excellent as a textbook or reference book for a senior or graduate level course on the subject, as well as a reference for researchers in related fields.

This book provides mathematical models of pedestrian movements that can be used specifically for designing feedback control laws for effective evacuation. It book uses the hydrodynamic hyperbolic PDE macroscopic pedestrian models since they are amenable to feedback control design.

This book develops a methodology for designing feedback control laws for dynamic traffic assignment (DTA) exploiting the introduction of new sensing and information-dissemination technologies to facilitate the introduction of real-time traffic management in intelligent transportation systems.

The series Advances in Industrial Control aims to report and encourage technology transfer in control engineering. The authors viewpoint is that this new set of transportation problems are control problems and that control engineers should be highly active in this field.

The subject of this book is model abstraction of dynamical systems. * A review of abstraction and an extension of these ideas into new system relationship characterizations called traceability and -traceability.
